Bob Thank you very much . Enayet’s style of shooting is extremely instinctive , but methodical . He relies upon the fact that his shotgun has no choke in either barrel , to get wide patterns with his hand loaded 3 inch copper plated SG cartridges ( each of which , holds 15 copper plated SG...

1dirthawker Thank you very much . The difference between fiction and actual accounts , is exactly this : In real life , we are often forced into less than ideal predicaments by cruel twists of fate. And we are then , forced to conduct ourselves in manners which might be deemed “ unheroic “ in...

Ridge Walker Thank you very much. Enayet’s third man eater had actually attempted to spring on him , from the top of a tree . While Enayet was under the tree .

Four Five Eight Thank you very much . We try relating our experiences , exactly the way that they happened . Impartiality and honesty must always be strived for , without any exaggeration. Enayet was initially a little hesitant about including the part , where he actually contemplated hiding...

Nyati Thank you very much . Enayet is an absolute wizard , with that Baikal 12 Bore Side By Side shotgun . I have once seen him successfully bring down four Common Sheldrake Ducks simultaneously , just by firing the left barrel of his Baikal shotgun . He was using Eley 3 inch Alphamax Magnum...

Bruce Thank you very much . The hilarious irony about Enayet’s life is that all five of the man eating Hunting Leopards killed by him , were wounded fiends which had charged Enayet after he was spooring them . On his 1983 Safari to Zimbabwe , Enayet brought down : 1) Francolin partridge 2)...

Shootist43 Thank you , very much . Enayet would , indeed fit in ,extremely well amongst the members of AH forums , just like both Major Poton Khan Sir and I have .

Major Khan Sir Thank you very much . The .458 Winchester Magnum was a Mannlicher Shoenauer bolt action rifle , employing a rotary magazine . The ammunition was Hornady 500 grain Full Metal Jacket solid factory loaded cartridges. Enayet told me , today.

Shootist43 I certainly hope so , too . He is the first person to inspire both Major Poton Khan Sir and I to commence putting our adventures to pen and paper , on AH forums . Now , people like Enayet and Riaz are considering “ jumping in “ to AH forums , as well .

Bruce It is complete , now . Your critique would be greatly appreciated .

Art Lambert II Please do read the rest of it . I am optimistic that you may enjoy it .

Major Khan Sir , Better yet . Let us ask him to join AH forums !

Wyatt Smith Thank you very much . It is remarkable how much luck plays such an important part , in most of our early successes .

Written by Enayet Hamza “ I nervously explained to the forest department officers what had happened. I told them about how I had gone out for hunting a Kakar buck and about how I had acted purely in self defense , when the Hunting Leopard had attacked me . Miraculously enough , the forest...

Written by Enayet Hamza “ Winter was coming , and my engineering college’s second semester had come to a close . I was free for the rest of the year , and so decided to spend my time hunting in the beloved forests around my family home . I would dedicate some of my time , watching Mother’s...

Written by Enayet Hamza “ I was born in 1963 and have lived all my life in the same place - On the outskirts of the Panchagarh district in the North most end of Bangladesh . Father used to be a Doctor ( he is mostly retired now that he is 78 years of age , although he still visits his...

A very close younger friend of mine , who has been eagerly reading @Major Khan Sir’s and my writings on AH Forums , decided ( Upon my encouragement ) to try his hand at writing , recently . He is my compatriot , young Mr . Enayet Hamza ( Well , he is 57 years old . So he is definitely younger...

used by the Author to dispose of 16 man eating Hunting Leopards from between 1973 to 1974

No. 2 , No. 4 , No.6 and another No.4

Art Lambart II Thank you very much for enjoying it and deeming me to be a courageous man ( while the reality is that half the time , I was completely terrified out of my mind ) . I actually get asked this question , quite a lot . In order to understand the answer to this question . I would...

Nyati Thank you very much for enjoying it .

New Boomer Just you wait . You absolutely have to hear about this one . The Major baited the fiend and shot him through the head , by employing a .22 Long Rifle.

WebleyGreene455 Thank you very much . I am touch by your heartfelt concern for my motherland and my people . Fortunately , we have suffered not even one casualty . Our Sundarban mangrove forests bore the brunt of nature’s rage and prevented the cyclone from advancing too much , inland . We...

Bob Thank you very much for enjoying this entry of mine . Indeed , back in those days , my family and I would always try to financially assist widows , whenever possible . Life used to be extremely difficult for widows in India , back in those days . It still is .As soon of their husbands pass...

Sam Kunal Please do ! I am a massive admirer of Continental firearms !

Cpr0312 I am honored that you have enjoyed this entry of mine with such zeal.

New Boomer I am honored that you have enjoyed this entry of mine , so much . As far as dangerous game hunting is concerned , there are some very particular sets of circumstances where it is ideal to make the fiend come towards your direction ( as opposed to you attempting to get closer to it )...

1dirthawker I am honored that you have enjoyed this entry of mine , so much . A Double Rifle ( With double triggers ) is completely unrivaled by anything else , for getting off a pair of quick , instinctive shots at dangerous game ( especially at close quarters ) . I should also like to add a...

Wyatt Smith Thank you very much . I have nothing to say , except this : India and Kenya should always remain examples to the free world , about why Shikar is a vital part of conservation .

Shootist43 I am honored that you have enjoyed it . I owe my success only to the Double Rifle . For quick instinctive shooting in quick quarters , the Shikari benefits from using a Double Rifle which handles quickly like a British game gun . Regarding my servants , please allow me to explain...

Ridge Walker This is quite true . The only person in my entire life , whom I have seen that actually enjoys going after Hunting Leopards, is Major Poton Khan Sir . He is a person , who has not changed even the slightest in the last 50 years . He literally jumps in excitement , if you tell him...

Bruce I am honored that you are so enthusiastic to read my entry . I can only hope that you have enjoyed it ?

Major Khan Sir Really ? Enayet told me about yesterday’s crocodile Shikar .

Major Khan Sir I am honored to have been able to do you justice .

The five of us silently , but hurriedly hauled the corpse of the slain man eater towards Dad’s garage shed . I then took my Schrade Old Timer Trapper carbon steel folding knife out of the pocket of my trousers, and handed it to T E . T E opened the clip point blade ( which I used to keep...

When I searched the area where Dad , S T , TE and D K were waiting , the sun was merely minutes away from setting . We all began to make preparations for putting down the man eater . Dad loaded his Indian Ordinance Factories .315 caliber bolt action rifle with Indian Ordinance Factories 244...

S T was absolutely enraged that his loyal man servant had fallen victim to a man eating Hunting Leopard . Our employees were absolutely terrified that yet another man eating Hunting Leopard had managed to prowl into our property And Mom & Dad were immensely worried that the man eater would...

It was the April of 1974 , at our family Tea Estate in Jolpaiguri . I was a mild mannered , ( stupid ) law abiding citizen during the day . And a poacher during the night . It just so happened that on one night , our employees had notified me of a large Nilgai ( Blue Bull ) which had wandered...

After a very long time , I have finally managed to clear some time on my schedule to write a new entry on AH forums . Some of my previous entries on AH forums have been : “ In pursuit of the fabled black panther “ ( Narrated by Major Khan Sir , on my behalf )...

I will cheat . @Red Leg Sir can figure this out in no time . He had a strong appreciation and knowledge base about vintage shotguns and ammunition.

Major Khan Sir This is exactly why I much prefer Winchester cartridges . The amount of propellant in those Eley paper cartridges are pitiful .

Major Khan Sir This is another marvelous narration , indeed . I have a small question , since I have never used Eley cartridges in my life . Did Eley offer copper plated buckshot cartridges , back in those days ?

Sir Thank you very much . And especially thank you for your treasure trove of knowledge about European firearms and calibers . Before I joined AH forums , my horizons were so small . I was only familiar with American calibers , firearms and companies . The only British caliber I was familiar...

Major Khan Sir Like father , like son .

I do not have any personal experience with the 10.75x68 millimeter Mauser , because I only became a passionate Shikari in 1973 . However , I do know of a ( recently deceased ) Anglo Indian former Shikari in Bangalore ( by the name of Don Anderson ) who shot one Spotted Leopard with a 10.75x68...
